Blankets?? Why are on earth do you want to give your rabbit a blanket?? Is this an indoor or outdoor housed rabbit??
Rabbits do not require a blanket for warmth or snuggle purposes. If you want to offer them something to sit on or snuggle into, then they can have a blanket if you must. But remember, if your rabbit wants to chew on this blanket and consumes too much, it will bind up his digestive system and cause health problems that can lead to death.
There are plenty of items that a rabbit can sit on or "snuggle" into that are more rabbit safe. Check with the local pet stores for floor mats made out of natural materials safe for rabbits if consumed. Or try a litter pan with recycled newspaper. Nest boxes for breeding does can also double as a "house" for a single bunny. Pet hay or straw inside this.
If you are offering blankets for an outdoor housed rabbit, you may want to consider using hay or straw for bedding rather than blankets. A blanket won't have enough insulation warmth for a rabbit and once he soils the blanket, it will no longer be healthy nor usable.

Oddly enough, Bunnies like sawdust and a closed in box to stay warm in.
